RIO FluoroFlex Saltwater/Bonefish Leaders are designed for anglers who want a clean, predictable transfer of energy from fly line to fly, with the added stealth and abrasion resistance fluorocarbon is known for. On bright flats and clear-water scenarios, leader performance shows up fast. A leader that turns over smoothly helps you land the fly where you aimed, and fluorocarbon helps keep the connection subtle when fish slide close and get selective.
These leaders are a strong match for common flats work where accurate presentations and controlled fly delivery matter. They also make sense when you are fishing around coral, shell, mangroves, or anything else that can punish a leader during the fight. If you want a simple, reliable starting point for building a saltwater system that behaves well, this is an easy leader to trust.
Each leader has high abrasion resistance and excellent tensile and knot strength and a long butt section that will turn over flies effortlessly.
